Adriana Lima is the first Victoria's Secret Angel to visit Dubai. The sexy model has lobbied hard until she got exactly what she wanted. She's in the luxurious cosmopolitan city to promote the US lingerie brand's latest underwear line.

Adriana was adamant to be the first VS model to represent the brand in the UAE. When she heard earlier this year that there would be a visit to the UAE, she “drove them crazy” asking if she could be the one to meet fans in Dubai — which she, one of the world’s most attractive women, thinks is “exotic”.

“I have so many friends that come here, it’s completely different than anywhere else, it’s completely exotic. I have an adventurous personality, I love to travel and experience new cultures.,” she told Gulf News' tabloid! on Sunday morning, seated in a pink chair in the store and wearing a sleek silver animal-print sheath dress.
